Such a kind person.

Harry was a friend to everyone who came into the Post Office. I have a box at the post office since 1986, and it was always a treat to give Harry a big hello and he returned the greeting with a big smile a hello back to you. He was a friendly clerk who knew me by name. I missed him when he retired and the entire community who knew him will hold wonderful memories of Harry Hulsey. God bless his family.

Harry, I've known you for a very short time. All the comments about you are true. Always a sheerful person and you treated me with lots of respect and I really appreciated your kindness toward me. I wish, I knew more people like you. Your are a remarkable person so scarce. You will be missed by many.

Harry Hulsey was one of the kindest people I ever worked with. I was so saddened to hear of his passing. RIP, Friend.

I waited a while to reflect on Harry's passing and how very much we enjoyed knowing and working with him. He, as everyone has said, is one of a kind. We can all learn a lesson in how to treat each other. It didn't matter who you were or what station in life he greeted you like a long lost friend and always had good things to say about you. It was such a pleasure to know him and work with him never a complaint. So far there are 80 posts but that does not tell the whole story. Every other...

What a complete shock this was to hear of Harry's passing. I was not even aware that he had been ill. This man was such a delight to converse with. Never had a negative word to say about anyone. I will truly miss his cheerful face at Country Club Liquors. What a GREAT man he was!
